I have a Framework 13 AMD - love it overall. I’m currently running opensuse with Plasma but would honestly be happy to switch DEs if this was possible elsewhere.

It has a moderately high resolution screen (2256x1504). For a lot of games the AMD can’t quite keep up, but runs fine at lower resolutions. The problem is that most games will offer native resolution, but then offer “standard” resolutions below that rather than half native.

Is there a way (even if manually for each game) to tell Plasma (or GNOME if I have to go that route) to launch a game with half the screen resolution?

      Awesome, thanks. I will dig into it.

          For any one who finds it in the future - I just set a Steam launch with gamescope set to half my native resolution, fullscreen and enabled fsr. Games run at the weird 1128x752 and FSR makes it look even better but I get great performance.

    If gamescope misbehaves, proton-ge releases include wine fshack with fsr capabilities. Select proton-ge as the compatibility tool and add WINE_FULLSCREEN_FSR=1 %command% to the launch options. Once in game, select any resolution you like, and it’ll scale it using fsr to your display’s resolution.
